Stopping a DO loop: break and breakif

Control Logic : DO Loops : Stopping a DO loop: break and breakif

Stopping a DO loop: break and breakif

If the to option is not given, the command block within the loop will be repeated indefinitely. To stop looping, use either the break or break if command:

if (!Number GT 100) then

!Result = !Result + !Number

break if (!Number GT 100)

!Result = !Result + !Number

Any expression may be used with the breakif command, even a PML Function, provided the result is BOOLEAN (i.e. TRUE or FALSE).

The ( ) parentheses are optional but recommended.

The loop counter variable retains the value it had when the break from the loop occurred.
